• Ferguson Grand Jury to Meet Monday: Darren Wilson's Indictment Decision at Least 24 Hours Away

    Last Friday, it looked like a decision in Ferguson was imminent, but now we know that the grand jury that will determine the fate of Police Officer Darren Wilson will reconvene Monday, Nov. 24, for more deliberations. On Aug. 9, Wilson shot and killed Michael Brown after an altercation between them turned into a life-and-death situation. While waiting to see if Wilson will be indicted, tension is palpable with protestors insisting that this has now become a case revolving around civil rights. A state of emergency has been called in the St. Louis area, and National Guard members are also already in place, leading many to believe that it is pretty obvious that Wilson will not be indicted. But Brown's family was assured a phone call from Ferguson prosecutors once a decision is reached, and they have yet to hear anything either way.

  • Kaci Hickox, Nurse Tangled in Ebola Scandal, Breaks Quarantine after Insisting She Has No Symptoms, Ready to Go to Court to Fight for Human Rights

    Kaci Hickox believes the battle she is waging is not just about Ebola. She is the nurse who returned from treating Ebola patients in West Africa just last week and, upon landing in Newark, New Jersey, she was taken to a medical detention center to be quarantined. The scuffle began because Hickox reportedly had an elevated temperature when arriving at the airport, and so she was immediately quarantined in a tent. Eventually, Hickox was allowed to leave and returned to her Fort Kent, Maine, home, where she is locked in a battle over whether or not she is a threat to the general public. She has broken quarantine and is willing to go to court over the matter.

  • Security Increased at 9,500 Federal Buildings as Government Fears Random, Lone Terrorist Attacks

    Several recent events have prompted the U.S. Department of Homeland Security to decide to tighten security at more than 9,500 facilities across the country that are used by 1.4 million visitors each day. The heightened security is no doubt directly related to the lone gunman, Michael Zehaf-Bibeau, who managed to storm into Canada's Parliament last week shortly after killing Nathan Cirillo, a solider guarding Ottawa's National War Memorial. That incident, plus ISIS, continuously calling for lone-wolf jihad missions certainly has made the U.S. reconsider just how well-protected we all are.

  • 'RHONJ's' Teresa and Joe Giudice Celebrate Icy Wedding Anniversary Before She Heads to Prison First

    Even though the majority of the fans of "The Real Housewives of New Jersey" have turned on her, Teresa Giudice is still cranking out posts on social media to try and make it look like all is well. She and husband Joe Giudice are celebrating their 15th anniversary this weekend, and it was commemorated with a photo of the couple together. Unlike in the past, when Teresa has done everything in her power to convince us that her marriage is fabulous, this photo seems to have a bit of distance and ice between the once-tight couple.
